pipefail-early-exit.test.mjs (static scan) flagged the fixture-2 check as a
pipe into an early-exiting consumer; the sibling at fixture 1 already uses
the herestring form. Red reproduced locally (one scan entry, exactly the
flagged line), green after matching the sibling; verdict 4/4 and glyph 6/6
re-run green.
- F5 (rev-code-02 blocker): sign test-send-message-glyph-agnostic.sh into
test-enumeration-exclusions.txt beside its tmux siblings; the CI image
ships no tmux, so the suite stays manually run (#1017 burndown).
- Adoption finding: the verdict suite hard-coded SEND to its sibling and
ignored the SEND env var, so a red-first run against the shipping blob
silently measured the patched copy instead (measured: shipping run
printed PASS=4; with SEND honored it is PASS=3 FAIL=1, fixture 2 red,
matching the recorded review numbers). SEND is now honored with the
sibling as default, same contract as the glyph suite.
- F6/D19: framework FLEET-COMMS.md claimed 'rc=2 is the normal result
when the target is an idle pi seat'. Post-fix rc=0 is normal for idle
and busy pi seats; rc=2 on a healthy seat is a real report. Never-retry
advice kept, softened to 'may be in the pane' for the unconfirmed arm.
Live verification on sb-it-1-dt (tmux 3.7b, pi glm-5.3 low, scratch
session): idle pi - shipping rc=2 'may be UNDELIVERED' while the seat
consumed the message and answered; patched rc=0 delivered, answered.
Busy pi mid-turn - shipping rc=2 while the pane accepted both messages
as steering input ('Steering: ...', 'Alt+Up to edit all queued
messages'); patched rc=0 delivered, both consumed and acted on after the
turn. Both D11 signatures: verdict now matches reality.
send-message.sh located the REPL input box with grep -E '❯|^>|│ >'. That set is
Claude Code's box. A pi seat renders a bare U+2500 rule with no glyph, so on every
idle pi seat the capture succeeded, the grep matched nothing, status stayed
"unconfirmed", and the tool exited 2 "may be UNDELIVERED" with the paste and the
Enter both landed. The stderr tells the operator to retry, and that retry is the
duplicate delivery reported against the same tool.
Confirmation is now runtime-agnostic: our message tail sits on the input line
(located by cursor row, no glyph) before Enter and has left it after. That
transition is positive proof of submission.
Absence still proves nothing, which is the guard the 2026-08 fix was reaching for
and got backwards. Two positive checks keep it:
- a prompt box that IS locatable and still carries our tail => draft, exit 2.
This covers the cursor-row blind spot: a cooked pane whose foreground process
never reads stdin echoes the paste through the kernel line discipline and
moves the cursor off it on Enter, which by cursor row alone is indistinguishable
from a real submit.
- no draft ever observed on the input line => unconfirmed, non-zero.
Tests, both red-first against the shipping blob d397907:
test-send-message-glyph-agnostic.sh (new, 6 fixtures) 4/6 -> 6/6
test-send-message-verdict.sh (fixture 2 reshaped, 2b added) 3/4 -> 4/4
Fixture 2 of the verdict suite asserted exit 2 for a glyphless pane that submits
and was labelled "false-positive FIXED". A pi seat is that fixture, so the suite
was locking the bug in. It is reshaped deliberately, and the guard it was credited
with moves to new fixture 2b (glyphless AND non-submitting, raw/no-echo) so the
"never infer delivered from absence" property is tested positively rather than as
a side effect.
Measured on tmux 3.7b (sb-it-1-dt), 3.5a (fomo-lin), and dragon-lin.

Per ops-ci-01 (PR #1324 comments 23413/23422) and fred's one-at-a-time
authorization: one serialized run of #1324's tree on the pinned image
(ci-base:lock-9cb7ffcd8828, carried since the cb9a0d1 absorb). This commit
changes no files — the tree is identical to 9af456c; it exists only to mint a
fresh pipeline head instead of restarting 2545.
Per ops-ci-01's procedure (comments 23386/23394, brain D27): pipeline config
travels with the commit under test, so the controlled rerun requires the pinned
anchor in the PR head itself. This merge absorbs everything next took since the
original merge parent (1bdeed62): the ci-base pin (cb9a0d1, lock-9cb7ffcd8828),
the legacy-credential removal (#1325), and the ci-queue-wait statuses:null fix
(#1129 — the branch from the divergence analysis, now landed).
One conflict, same file as round 1: test:framework-shell union — our 54-entry
chain plus next's new test-ci-queue-wait-no-status.sh entry at its position
(55 entries, every target existence-verified). Enumeration guard green:
population 61, enumerated 46, excluded (signed) 16.
Pipeline 2534 (018d96a), two test-step failures plus the format failure
root-caused by rev-code-01 (id 202):
1. pipefail-early-exit.test.mjs: main's window wrote the test but never
wired scripts/*.test.mjs into its own CI, so its tools/install.sh pipes
were never executed against it; next's test wiring runs them and flags
two load-bearing pipes. Both rewritten pipefail-safe via process
substitution (newest_matching_file ls|head, check_fleet_transport
sed|head|tr|awk). Test now 7/7 locally.
2. verify-release.test.mjs: merge kept main's 9-command ci.yml sanitization
but next's 4-command canonical stage. Canonical updated to mirror ci.yml
exactly (9=9, order verified). upgrade-guard checked equal (4=4).
3. format: docs/reports/quality/1099-pipefail-sweep.md (from main f158be8)
prettier-formatted under pinned 3.8.1.
Enumeration guard re-verified: population 60, enumerated 45, excluded 16.
Review stack#1324 id 201 (rev-code-01): the union resolution chained main's #1073
fleet test while keeping next's signed exclusion of it (#1271 burn-down: the test
asserts missing-binary behavior but CI provides pi on PATH — fails by design).
check-test-enumeration CONTRADICTORY EXCLUSION, CI pipeline 2532 terminal failure.
Fix per verified review recommendation: remove the chain entry (55 -> 54 parts),
keeping next's exclusion and #1271 state. Guard now passes:
population 60, enumerated 45, excluded (signed) 16.
The repo format:check glob covers ts/js alongside md; four non-markdown
scripts inside the folded tree were flagged after the md pass. Same pinned
prettier 3.8.1, same markup-only class (verified: node --check still passes
on the js files).
Phase D3 of plan 2026-08-19 (decision S21): skills-local is the local test
bed; promote individually as each proves out. ms-unslop is the only one of
the seven local skills with working enforcement evidence — a checker
(tools/unslop-hook/unslop-check.js), a machine-source list (lists.json), a
19-test suite, a measured corpus, and a regression fixture.
The checker itself stays fleet-local for now (it binds to a specific
harness extension surface); this promotes the skill document only.
Gates verified on the moved file: sanitization denylist clean, prettier
3.8.1 clean (6730 chars was fred's measure at assignment; 7249 as shipped
today — both pass).
Phase D2 of plan 2026-08-19: single package, single install, single command.
The framework installer already treats skills/** as a shipped, manifest-owned
framework subtree, so the folded skills now install into
$MOSAIC_HOME/skills with the rest of the framework — no second repository,
no separate sync step:
- mosaic-sync-skills (bash + powershell): the fetch machinery is gone (clone,
pull, dirty-state migration, rsync from sources/agent-skills). The script
now only links installed skills into runtime homes. --link-only is a compat
no-op; --no-link exits having nothing to do.
- catalog.ts: the sources/agent-skills fallback is dead and removed.
- install.sh, launch.ts, defaults/README.md, README.md, skills/README.md:
references to the second repo rewritten to describe the shipped path.
Verified: clean install into a fresh MOSAIC_HOME produces 102 skills with no
sources/ directory; the linker then links the selected skills into the four
runtime homes with no git involvement.
963 markdown files reformatted with the repository's pinned prettier so
pnpm format:check covers the folded tree like every other repo file.
The formatter's embedded-language pass also normalized code fences
(TS semicolons, closed HTML tags in examples, lowercased CSS hex colors,
one renumbered list that skipped an index). Alphanumeric token deltas vs
the fold commit were audited file-by-file; all are formatter-equivalent
markup normalizations plus the four sanitized skills.
Four folded skills carried operator identity tokens that the sanitization
gate (verify-sanitized.sh) forbids in the public framework package:
- kickstart: template path pointed at a private brain checkout; now uses the
framework-shipped $MOSAIC_HOME/templates/docs/TASKS.md.template
- mosaic-deploy: dropped one estate-specific stack-name row from the example
table
- mosaic-portainer, mosaic-woodpecker: credentials now name the framework
credentials store (load_credentials <service>) instead of a private
checkout path
Estate-specific values can live in a skills-local override, which the linker
applies with precedence over canonical skills.
Fold the agent-skills repository into the monorepo as the shipped canonical
skills package (plan 2026-08-19 phase D1, decision S19: single package, single
install, single command).
History is preserved by rewriting each commit's paths from skills/ to
packages/mosaic/framework/skills/ (git fast-export/import) and merging the
rewritten history with --allow-unrelated-histories, so the original commits
with their authors, dates, and messages remain reachable. Blob content is
untouched by the rewrite; tree fidelity was verified blob-sha-for-blob-sha.
This change must be merged with a real merge commit (not squash) or the
history link is destroyed.
rev-code-01's non-blocking nit on #1313 round 2. The no-linking-step paragraph
pointed at the bridge explanation as 'described below'; it is above. Now names the
section, which survives further reordering better than a direction word does.
Text-only. Verified with the repo's PINNED prettier (3.8.1 via pnpm-lock.yaml) and
the sanitization gate, both clean.
All four findings reproduced before fixing. rev-code-01 was right on each.
B2 (blocker, mine). SEAT-IDENTITY provisioning step 4 said to symlink the
framework store entry to the seat slot, while the same file says those bridges
must not be recreated. The same bridge, told both ways, in one document. I
rewrote the resolution and token-location sections when the deploy made them
stale and did not carry the change into the numbered steps. Step 4 is gone and
the file now says explicitly that no provisioning step links the store to the
slot, so the omission cannot read as an oversight.
S1 (mine). The guide claimed the helper "attempts a fleet notification" on
refusal. The shipped helper does no such thing — its only reference to
notification is a comment saying an alert built on the record is best-effort, and
there is no send or wake call anywhere in the file. Now: it writes a durable
record, the record is what exists, and nobody should wait for a notification that
nothing sends. A guide that promises an alert is worse than one that promises
nothing.
S2. Estate-local content removed from files that ship to every estate: the
~/.mosaic/fleet/bin script paths (dead paths elsewhere) and the 2026-08-18 dates,
which dated a specific host's migration rather than describing behavior. The
bridge-removal passage now states the ORDERING that matters — remove bridges only
after a seat-aware helper can reach the slot, never before — which is the part
that transfers.
B1. prettier reformatted all three files. Reproduced the pipeline 2515 failure
locally before and confirmed clean after; the other three guides prettier flags
are untouched by this branch (0 changes vs origin/next) and are pre-existing.
Sanitization gate re-run and passing.
Verified for the record, since I could not verify my own work: rev-code-01
confirmed the no-fallback claim TRUE against helper content on origin/next, and
judged the evidence rules actionable on the grounds that each names an executable
replacement.
Pipeline 2514 failed the sanitization gate on 'Jason mints the token into the
seat slot'. The denylist is jarvis|jason|woltje|... and a shipped framework file
must not carry operator identity. My mistake: I generalized the estate paths and
seat names when promoting this guide and did not check the operator name.
Now reads 'the estate operator', with the accompanying rule that an agent does
not ask another agent to mint one either.
Verified by running tools/quality/scripts/verify-sanitized.sh locally rather than
guessing at the pattern: gate passes.
The #1280 prohibition carried an explanation of how the tools misattribute and
why the failure is invisible from inside them. A reader who is not going to use
the tool cannot act on any of it. Same for rule 2's closing clause about what
reviews commonly miss. Both cut to the decree and the corrective action.
Rules 1 and 3-12 keep their trailing sentences: those are corrective actions or
the detail that makes the case recognizable, not justification.
Three guides that existed only as one host's working copy, promoted to framework
templates so every estate gets them. A working copy under ~/.mosaic binds one
host; only a template here binds all of them.
SEAT-IDENTITY.md (new) documents how a seat's git credential is actually
resolved after #1311: identity from MOSAIC_GIT_IDENTITY, then
mosaic.gitIdentity, then the stdin username; host mapped to a store prefix; then
ONE of two stores chosen by whether the seat directory exists, with no
precedence and no fallback between them. A seat with a directory and an empty
slot fails closed rather than reaching the service store, and that is the point.
It also corrects how to find the helper. credential.helper commonly names an
absolute path, so `command -v git-credential-mosaic` answers a different question
than the one git asks, and the two stop agreeing the moment the PATH copy is
removed. Git also tries EVERY configured helper in order, so a fail-closed helper
in front silently hands the request to whatever is configured behind it. The
guide says to read the whole list.
FLEET-COMMS.md (new) documents agent-send.sh: the class table, the addressing
preamble, and the exit codes — including that rc=2 means the text reached the
pane as an unsubmitted draft, so retrying double-sends it. Confirm with
capture-pane instead. It also says to measure the fleet rather than trust
roster.yaml, which on a live host was simultaneously naming a socket that did not
exist, listing seats that were not running, and omitting seats that were.
CODE-REVIEW.md gains an Evidence Discipline section: a green is not a result
until you have shown it could go red, measurement and explanation are separate
sentences, verify by content on the ref that ships rather than by ancestry of a
local sha, and confidence is part of a finding. Plus four shell-measurement rules
earned on #1311, each of which produced a wrong conclusion first — `cmd | tail;
echo rc=$?` reports tail's status, a missed glob under pipefail exits 2 and kills
the run under set -e, nonzero-with-no-output is an environment question before it
is a code question, and `git -C` in a non-repo directory answers from the
enclosing repo.
The estate-specific repository exception that lived in the working copy is not
carried here. The template says an estate may document one, scoped to a named
repository and never precedent for a second.
Both new guides are added to the two routing tables that agents read.
Both defects found in review by rev-code-01 on #1311.
F3 — the JSONL record interpolated every field with a bare %s. An identity comes
from git config or the environment and a cwd is whatever directory git ran in, so
either can contain a quote or a backslash. One such refusal turned the day's spool
into unparseable JSONL, and the operator would only discover it while reading the
record that explains an outage. Fields are now JSON-escaped.
F2 — the diagnostic printed "record: <spool>/<date>.jsonl" unconditionally, but
the record is only written inside the branch where mkdir -p succeeded. When the
spool cannot be created the helper named a file that does not exist, on exactly
the hosts where the escalation was lost. It now reports the real path or says
NOT WRITTEN.
Also: prettier on README.md, which was the format-step failure on pipeline 2508.
It reflowed only the two tables this branch added.
Tests: cases 14 and 15 cover both. Verified discriminating — against the previous
helper with these same tests, case 14 fails with the unparseable record printed
and case 15 fails on both assertions; against this one both pass.
The first draft of case 14 used `ls "$spool"/*.jsonl | head -1`, which under
`set -o pipefail` exits 2 on a missed glob and killed the suite with zero output
— the same silent-nonzero failure rev-code-01 hit from a partial tools/ extraction
and the reason this file exists. Replaced with a glob loop and a comment.
Two changes to one rule: a credential is resolved from exactly one place,
and an identity that cannot be resolved is refused rather than substituted.
FAIL CLOSED. Both readers ended in an unconditional fall-through to the
shared Gitea account whenever an identity did not resolve. Every seat in a
fleet therefore pushed, opened PRs and filed reviews under one account, and
a record made that way cannot be traced to the agent that made it
afterwards. The fallback now applies only where there is no attribution to
lose: a host with no fleet. Where seats exist, an unresolvable request emits
nothing, exits nonzero, explains itself on stderr, and — in the git helper —
appends a record naming the identity, host, reason and cwd, and no token
value, to ${MOSAIC_CREDENTIAL_SPOOL:-~/.local/state/mosaic-credential-escalations}.
A host runs a fleet when <brain>/fleet/agents exists, which is the signal
packages/mosaic/src/fleet/brain-home.ts already uses to decide a brain is
active, resolved the same way (MOSAIC_BRAIN_HOME, else ~/.mosaic). This is
what keeps the change a no-op for an operator who has not provisioned
per-slot tokens: no fleet directory, shared account, unchanged. It is also
why there is no environment variable to restore the old behavior — one would
reintroduce the substitution being removed.
STORE SELECTION. Both readers hardcoded ~/.config/mosaic/secrets/gitea-tokens,
so a seat's own secrets/ slot was invisible to the framework: a seat could
hold a valid credential and still be served the shared account. The store is
now chosen by what the identity is. An identity with a directory under
<brain>/fleet/agents/ is a seat and is read only from
<brain>/fleet/agents/<id>/secrets/; any other identity is a service identity
and is read from the framework store. There is no precedence between them
and no fallback from one to the other, so a seat with an empty slot is
refused even when a same-named token sits in the framework store. Two copies
of one credential are drift rather than redundancy, and drift surfaces as
the stale copy returning 401, which reads as a revoked token and sends
whoever debugs it somewhere else.
detect-platform.sh is in scope alongside git-credential-mosaic because they
are the two readers of these tokens. Patching only the git helper would make
"one credential, one location" true for push and fetch and false for
pr-create.sh, issue-create.sh and pr-review.sh, which is the harder failure
to notice.
TESTS. The three assertions that pinned the shared-account fall-through are
now fail-closed assertions, and a refusal is checked four independent ways:
nonzero exit, empty stdout, a stderr diagnostic naming identity and host,
and no shared token value anywhere in the output. The exit code alone would
pass against a helper that emitted the credential and then failed. Added:
seat-slot resolution, the no-cross-store-fallback case with a control
proving the framework-store file it declines to read is readable, no-identity
on a fleet host, the fleet gate firing on the default ~/.mosaic and not only
on an injected MOSAIC_BRAIN_HOME, and a cross-host leak check. Both suites
were run against the pre-change code as a control and fail there on exactly
the shared-token emission.
shellcheck is not installed on the authoring host, so the rewritten helper
is unlinted locally and CI is the first lint of it.

The first PR for this change was filed under the retired mos-dt-0 principal
(pr-create.sh has no --login flag and find_tea_login_for_host returns the first
host match) and was closed and refiled as #1270. That left in-tree references
pointing at a closed duplicate PR rather than at the burn-down issue, which is
the wrong target for them anyway: the open design question belongs on #1271.
The `test` step has failed on every `next` pipeline since #1017 on exactly one
assertion, and it is the same one on unrelated PRs:
FAIL: host provides 'pi' in the system path; missing-binary cases are not
measurable here (framework/tools/fleet/test-start-agent-session.sh:103)
Measured 2026-08-16 across pipelines 2444 (#1256), 2438 (#1240) and 2441
(#1017-quality): exactly one FAIL line in each full log, identical, this line.
Control `zzz-not-present-zzz` -> 0 on all three.
Cause. #1241 (5c35a250) added the guard: the suite shims fake mosaic/pi/npm into
$FAKE_BIN, but the constructed PANE_PATH always ends in the real system path, so
on a host that installs those binaries the missing-binary cases cannot be
measured and a green run would mean nothing. The guard says so instead of
passing. Its own pipeline 2430 was green only because the suite was CI-excluded
at the time, so the guard had never run in CI. #1017 (c56483eb) then enumerated
it and dropped the exclusion. The CI image installs
@earendil-works/[email protected].1 on purpose, so the precondition is
unsatisfiable there. Both commits are mine.
The guard is correct and is not being softened. A check that cannot measure its
property and reports success is the failure mode this repo has been cataloguing
all week; the error was wiring the suite into an image that violates its
precondition, so the wiring is what gets reverted.
Second effect, which is the reason this cost a day rather than an hour:
test:framework-shell is one && chain and this sat at position 44 of 48, so
glpi/test-list-http-status.sh, orchestrator/test-board-roll.sh,
woodpecker/test-ci-wait-exit-matrix.sh and _scripts/test-fleet-transport-check.sh
have not run at all since the merge. The pipeline reported one failure, never
"one failure plus four unrun". All four are green when run directly on
sb-it-1-dt, so the mask hid nothing broken -- but that is a local result on one
host, not a CI-image result.
Verification, with controls:
- enumeration guard OK (population 52, enumerated 36, signed-excluded 16).
- control A, exclusion line removed while unwired -> FAIL UNENUMERATED.
- control B, exclusion line kept while rewired -> FAIL CONTRADICTORY EXCLUSION.
The gate discriminates in both directions, so its OK is load-bearing.
- the four formerly-masked suites: rc=0 each, run directly.
- the full chain cannot be run to completion on sb-it-1-dt: it stops earlier, at
the lease-broker Invariant R test, because this host carries the quarantined
operator-global pi 0.84.2 against a measured 0.84.1. That is host-specific and
out of scope here -- CI pins 0.84.1, and the single FAIL line in those three
pipelines proves positions 1-43 passed there.
Burn-down is to control the tail of PANE_PATH inside the test, not to remove pi
from the image. Recorded in the exclusion reason and in #1269.
